Schmitt) Newsgroups: comp.unix.aux,comp.mail.uucp Subject: INPUT FAILURE in uucp under A/UX 2.0 Summary: IN SEND/SLAVE MODE (INPUT FAILURE) Keywords: input failure error uucp mail Message-ID: <1990Dec22.044831.8117@chinet.chi.il.us> Date: 22 Dec 90 04:48:31 GMT Distribution: na Organization: Cedar Services Lines: 32 I recently started getting errors using uucp. The error doesn't appear consistently; I think it may (this is just a guess) have something to do with the size of the file/mail being transferred. Small mail messages seem to get through, but larger ones and files get the error. I had been transferring big files (100K+ gif files) before this started happening. Anyway, here's the appropriate section of the LOGFILE: 1 chinet!uucp (12/16-10:28:04) (C,1065,0) C.chinet (bldfl) 1 chinet!uucp (12/16-10:28:04) (C,1065,0) OK (DIRECT tty1 0) 1 chinet!uucp (12/16-10:28:32) (C,1065,0) SUCCEEDED (call to chinet ) 1 chinet!uucp (12/16-10:28:34) (C,1065,0) Shere=chinet (HERE) 1 chinet!uucp (12/16-10:28:39) (C,1065,0) yoruba (send Myname) 1 chinet!uucp (12/16-10:28:40) (C,1065,0) OK (startup) 1 chinet!uucp (12/16-10:28:40) (C,1065,0) C.chinet (bldfl) 1 chinet!uucp (12/16-10:28:42) (C,1065,0) REQUESTED (S /u/u1/henry/yoruba/m.1 ~/receive/henry/chinet// henry) 1 chinet!henry (12/16-10:28:42) (C,1065,0) temp file created (/usr/spool/uucp/TM.01065.000) 1 chinet!henry (12/16-10:28:42) (C,1065,0) Temp file stored (/usr/spool/uucp/TM.01065.000) 1 chinet!henry (12/16-10:30:23) (C,1065,1) IN SEND/SLAVE MODE (INPUT FAILURE) 1 chinet!henry (12/16-10:30:23) (C,1065,1) FAILED (conversation complete) I've looked in all my manuals and handbooks, including the NutShell guide, but nothing seems to list this error. The sysop of my feed (chinet) is sure the problem is on my end; I don't know enough uucp to figure it out. Can anyone help??? Thanx a bunch! -- H3nry C.
